KMD2489 Forever Brilliant (Fine art, poppy, garden, floral)

KMD2488 Along the Canal (China, Suzhou, water, canal)

I am finally getting back to my small daily paintings. This scene is from a photo taken last fall while in China, in the village of Suzhou. This is called the "Venice of the east" with its narrow streets, waterways and small bridges. We spent several hours there photographing life in the village as the day began. It was a privilege to see this amazing village and its people.

KMD2487 Asciano (Italy, urbanscape, city, village, Europe)

SOLD

I had to do this scene from the large one I posted earlier. Normally, the daily (ok, weekly) paintings usually inspire a larger painting, but since I did this one large first I found that it spoke to me to go small. This is a wonderful little village on the outskirts of Siena, Italy that we found as the day was ending.

KM2486 Sharing Shells (beach, Caribbean, children, landscape)

SOLD

This is a commission that I finished recently for a collector who is giving this to his wife as a surprise birthday present. It is quite a gift as my partners Anita and John also each did a painting of the 2 girls, one was a portrait and another beach scene. What fun to capture the innocence of children playing.

KM2484 Asciano (Italy, street scene, city scene, urban)

Back to Italy for a change of pace. I needed some new work for Brushstrokes so I decided to revisit one of my favorite places in Tuscany, the little village of Asciano.
I have painted many scenes from this quiet, unassuming village and would go back to visit it in a New York minute!

KM2474 Pairs (still life, fruit, oil painting)

KM2477 Reflections (landscape, water, reflections)

SOLD

Here is another in my reflections series that I am working on. I find the still waters of spring and fall reflections to be so calming which is one feeling I love to convey in my artwork, especially in today's frenzied world.

KM2476 Spring Bouquet (floral, still life, flowers, sunflower)

SOLD

I haven't done a floral still life since my pastel painting days. This was such fun to do because of the bright, spring colors and such a joyful combination of flowers bringing our much delayed spring into the studio.

KMD2478 Joyous Spring (garden, floral, poppies, flowers)

SOLD

I painted a large version of this scene for our last show at Brushstrokes, but had to do a small version for the Daily Painters since it is such a fun subject and composition. Spring is taking its time in arriving here in Denver. We had an incredible bloom of the crabapple and other friut trees all around the city until it snowed. Ahh, springtime in the Rockies. I keep hoping that if I paint enough flowers mother nature will get the hint and let winter go!

KM2473 He Brings Luck (rooster, animal, landscape)

This rooster was such fun to paint. I took his picture in China when I was visiting last fall. As I paint new subjects it is fun to learn new information about them. I found the following about the rooster: Throughout different cultures the rooster has been a symbol of many things one of the most predominant is luck. Having some form of Rooster in your kitchen is said to bring you luck and could just make you feel good. Hopefully painting roosters brings the same!

KM2475 It Must be Spring (floral, poppies, garden, flowers, original oil)

SOLD

After painting for our show "Identity Theft" here at Brushstrokes Studio Gallery here in Denver I had a great desire to be with my favorite poppies. It has been a really fun challenge to paint still life and roosters but I am also getting spring fever, which means everything is starting to bloom. So, I am itching to photograph and paint more florals. Here is a beautiful scene found from last year's poppy bloom as I couldn't wait for this year's bloom which is just around the corner.

KMD2470 Stacked (Still life, original oil, eggplant)

For our upcoming show, "Identity Theft" at Brushstrokes Studio-Gallery opening this Friday, each of has been challenged to paint each other's subject matter. I drew Anita Mosher's name and have been painting her specialty of still life and roosters. I will be posting them on my website: kithevronmahoney.
I did this little painting of eggplant after painting a larger still life with lemons and eggplant. Eggplant is not something I have much in my diet but it is so luscious and rich in color that it is a perfect still life subject.

KMD2469 Willow Creek Loop (bluebonnets, wildflowers, landscape, floral)

SOLD

I am sitting at my computer longingly remembering the amazing trip through the Texas Hill country a few weeks ago when the Bluebonnets were covering the hills with their vibrant layers of purples and lavenders, spiced with the reds of the paintbrush and yellows of a variety of other wildflowers. The fragrance was intoxicating and it was a day that I never wanted to end. This painting helps take me back to that wonderful day!

KMD2468 Sunlit Morning (floral, geranium, garden, original oil painting)

KM2455 Afternoon Glow (urban, landscape, oil painting, China)

I have been busy getting ready for our upcoming show at Brushstrokes and while organizing my painting area I found this little plein air piece I painted last fall in China. It was a small village outside of Li Jiang, one of my favorite places we visited. This scene was painted in the late afternoon after taking a burro ride around the village.

KMD2465 Vibrantly Wild

SOLD

With spring finally on its way (even though snow is expected here tonight) it is fun to anticipate all the new bloom whose leaves are starting to peek up out of the ground.

KM2463 Intermission (still life, ballet, toe shoes)

At Brushstrokes Studio Gallery here in Denver, we are planning a show called "Identity Theft" where each of the 3 of us paints the other's specialty. I drew my partner Anita, so will be doing a show of still life and roosters. Here is my first still life of one of my favorite things.......pink ballet toe shoes. Oh how I would love to be able to have one dance, full of grace and poise but think that at my stage of life I best stay with painting my favorite things.

KMD2464 Curious (nature, cows, cattle, animals)

SOLD

There is something so heartwarming about a cow's gentle gaze. I'm sure that ranchers would think I am romanticizing these wonderful creatures but what can I say? I am a city girl and far removed from the ranch life. I am just an artist who loves to paint all living creatures.

KMD2462 Fall's Rich Colors (fall, colorful, landscape, nature)

SOLD

I am working on a commission of an Aspen scene and my client loved the colors in this particular piece so I thought it would be fun to do this as a daily painting. I am so passionate for our Colorado fall colors that I can't imagine surviving the New England colors!

KMD2460 Red Crested Cardinal ( bird, nature, wildlife)

SOLD

While having lunch at the Contemporary Art Museum in Honolulu we were visited by these colorful birds who entertained us throughout our idealic lunch out on the lawn in the fragrant Hawaiian air. This is a Red Crested Cardinal which is fairly common in Honolulu. Also known as the Brazilian Cardinal, it was introduced around 1930 from South America. It feeds on seeds, plant matter, insects and fruit and anything from an artists luncheon!

KMD2457 Peaceful Valley (landscape, mountains, summer)

SOLD

It was amazing to be driving into this valley near Ohio Pass in Colorado last summer. We were in and out of magnificent fast moving storms, so much hail that we would have to pull off the road to wait them out and then the sun would come out leaving pictures like this one.

KMD2456 Vibrant Splendor by Kit Hevron Mahoney (landscape, contemporary, oil)

SOLD

I haven't been posting for awhile. It seems all the daily paintings I have done lately are not up to my standards hence I didn't post, perhaps an "artist block" or being very busy with lots of activity at the studio these days. Anyway I really was pleased with the abstract quality of this piece. I was drawn to the brilliant colors of the foreground and have expressed this as a "colorist" in my rendering.

KMD2450 Red Hot Hibiscus by Kit Hevron Mahoney (floral, Hibiscus, flower)

It's hard to resist the brilliant red Hibiscus flower to photograph and paint. I treasure this flower that grows so abundantly in the tropics as it colors the world for only a day before passing the torch to the next bud.
